SCFHS Saudi Licensure Diagnostic Radiology Prometric Exam

This paper is booked under the SCFHS Saudi Licensure Diagnostic Radiology professional title. Confirm the exact title on your eligibility approval before booking — neighbouring grades of the same profession sit different papers.

200 questions in 4 hours, which is about 1.2 minutes each. It is computer-based at a Prometric centre, and you can flag and revisit questions before you submit.

65% under the SCFHS Saudi licensure guideline — roughly 130 correct answers out of 200. Nothing is deducted for wrong answers, so leave nothing blank. Other Gulf regulators publish their own thresholds for the same content, so confirm the figure with the authority you are applying to.

The published blueprint names 11 areas: Body Imaging (12%), Neuro Imaging (12%), Head and Neck Imaging (5%), Musculoskeletal Imaging (12%), Chest Imaging (12%), Cardiovascular Imaging (7%), Pediatrics Imaging (12%), Women Imaging (8%), Ethics and Research (5%), Patient Safety (5%) and Contrast, Physics and Radiation Safety (10%). Our chapters use the same headings, so a weak chapter score points straight at the blueprint area to revisit.

No. DHA, MOHAP, SCFHS, QCHP, NHRA and OMSB each license the SCFHS Saudi Licensure Diagnostic Radiology title off a Prometric-delivered MCQ paper built on the same content. DOH runs its sitting through Pearson VUE instead. What changes between them is the pass mark, the classification tier and the attempt limit — so one body of preparation carries across, but each application is its own file.

It depends on the regulator. For the Specialist classification this paper belongs to: DHA asks for 3 years in specialty after board qualification; MOHAP asks for 3 years in specialty post-board; DOH asks for 5 years post-qualification (3 in specialty); SCFHS asks for 4 years post-qualification (2 in specialty); QCHP asks for 3 years in specialty after board qualification; NHRA asks for 3 years in specialty post-board; OMSB asks for 3 years in specialty post-board. Each authority counts those years against its own classification table, and they have to be backed by experience letters that survive Dataflow verification.

An eligibility approval from the regulator — your qualification and experience accepted against its classification rules — plus Dataflow primary source verification returned on your degree, licence and experience letters. The booking window opens after that, not before, which is why the paperwork should run in parallel with your revision.
